You’ve made two responses to me in the last few yours that do this - ascribe an opinion to me that is not the point I was making, and give a kneejerk rebuttal. I suggest you read more carefully. The point I was making here was to point out the _hypocrisy_ of a dismissal of religious belief while engaging in other equally superstitious activity. There is no implication in making that rhetorical point that I think burial practices should always be dismissed as totally unimportant.

Here’s the other instance of you doing this. I was clearly speaking to the merits of a legal argument, not remotely suggesting that excessive force was used against Babbitt.
